Contract Signed. MAKE IT SO
High above the bustle of Manhattan rests a sanctuary – a peaceful, Pre-War home – a magical residence swimming in sunshine and graced by heavenly breezes. From this rare Penthouse residence’s supremely scaled, private, freshly renovated, irrigated, gardened wrap-around terrace, your jaw will drop and your heart will race as you engage in one of our city’s most compelling vistas. Big sky is the theme here, and your unencumbered, picture postcard, panoramic views span from verdant Central Park to the East, and across the iconic city skyline to the South – soaring all the way to the Western skies. Originally designed by Emory Roth, this enchanting home was created with easy living and gracious entertaining in mind. The over-scaled living room’s wide orientation offers a remarkable front row seat to the terrace – served by handsome new doors that feature that cinematic view. Surrounded by the unrivaled terrace, this grand room offers a sizable dining area, and easy access to the al fresco dining space on the terrace’s widest point. The kitchen is an attractive yet practical windowed space with plentiful cabinets, stone counters, stainless appliances, a clever dining bar, and a bonus pantry that offers a unique opportunity for expansion. With its en suite, classic, windowed bath, its golden Western exposure, and its terrific scale, the master bedroom suite is deserving of the name. The large guest bedroom is beautifully flanked by the luscious terrace and inspiring Southern exposure, and is served by its own classic windowed bath. This resplendent residence, with its high ceilings, ample closets, washer/dryer, sweet foyer, and its soulful nature, is the rare crowning jewel atop one of the Westside’s most supremely located, full service buildings. Here, in this magnificent Penthouse, tranquility and distinction are the themes. Surrounded by nature and world class vistas, life is both peaceful and inspiring. It’s time for beauty – it’s time for excitement. Make it so.
